Ingredients

4 servings

8 oz macaroni (about 2 cups dry, or other small pasta of choice)
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp dry mustard powder
1.5 cups milk (of choice)
1/2 lb Velveeta cheese (cubed)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar

Instructions

Cook the macaroni in a large pat of salted water according to the package directions and drain well. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. When melted, stir in the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, and dry mustard, until smooth and incorporated.
Pour the milk into the pan in a thin stream while whisking, until smooth. Keep on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce bubbles and thickens, 3-5 minutes.
Add the cubed Velveeta and shredded cheddar and stir until melted and creamy.
Add in the drained macaroni, mixing until evenly coated, taste and season with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
